El Capitan is the best lake in San Diego right now and it's probablly only gonna get better. The only downside is there is a tourny there every single saturday.

I've always just used the z-man chatterbaits and the trailers that come with them, but I've been disappointed in the quality. Lately I've been playing with the Bassgrabber Drop Shad. It's a smaller bait that profiles a baitfish really well and the thin tail really gets moving. Plus it's something th...

Looks pretty good. I applaud you for listening to the anglers requests. The only thing that interferes with my schedule is the Havasu event falling on a national bass team event. But that is just me,and I'm sure it is impossible to make a schedule that is perfect for everyone.

The only time I've been there I stayed at the Sunset Station. It was a pretty nice place with lots of boat parking and power to charge your batteries. The rates were decent too because we got a discount through the event we were in. The only downside was that we were about 30 minutes from Callville.

The bait you were throwing might help diagnose your problem. It sounds like they may not be commiting to the bait. Maybe try a jerkbait or something subsurface.
